PubblicoContenuto scaricabile
open in viewerThe demand for MilliporeSigma’s products has grown annually causing an increase in work in progress inventory. This issue compromises safety, increases costs, and threatens customer service levels. WPI students analyzed the root causes of this issue and recommended improvements to the system through several methods such as Gemba walks, time studies, observations, and interviews. The final deliverables included an implementation plan for the team’s recommendations, the design of a pull system using Kanbans, and a quantitative impact assessment.
